Thin plate heat exchanger

Thin plate heat exchanger is a heat exchange equipment composed of a series of metal plates arranged and assembled according to a certain pattern. Due to the fact that the thinner the sheet of a thin plate heat exchanger, the lower the cost, many users want to make the sheet as thin as possible. However, they often overlook process parameter factors. Let's take a look at the introduction of this type of thin plate heat exchanger together.

1、 Characteristics of Thin Plate Heat Exchanger
The main feature of thin plate heat exchangers is the thinness of the plates, which can save a lot of costs. The equipment can increase or remove the number of plates according to the process requirements and parameters, thereby improving the adaptability of the process and reducing the footprint. The board and frame are tightly connected, and the operation process is smooth. As long as there are no process errors, there will generally be no leakage or malfunction.

And the equipment is easy to maintain, allowing for direct observation of the flow of media and internal process conditions on both sides of the plate for real-time inspection and maintenance. If you want to disassemble the equipment, you only need to unscrew the clamping bolts to complete the disassembly, while ensuring the normal operation of the process. It can achieve online cleaning process flow.

2、 Precautions for selection of thin plate heat exchangers
The plates of thin plate heat exchangers can be pressed according to user needs, with a thickness of up to 0.3; 0.8mm. However, there are also precautions to be taken.
1. Process effect:If the thickness of the board is too thin, it will cause poor reliability of the equipment process flow. In some processes, the pressure and temperature are high. If the thickness of the board is too thin, it will cause damage to the board.
2. Media factors:Thin plate materials are generally made of stainless steel. In some chemical fields, plate heat exchanger plates are not very corrosion-resistant. If the plate structure is thin, it can cause leakage and liquid leakage.
3. Maintenance matters:The plates of the thin plate heat exchanger need to be carefully lifted and placed during later cleaning or maintenance due to their thinness, which makes later maintenance very inconvenient.

So before selecting this type of thin plate heat exchanger, we cannot only pursue low equipment cost, but also determine the customized process based on the system parameters. We need to hand over the work to the manufacturer's technology in advance, confirm all the process flow before customizing the thin plate heat exchanger.
